OT Yes, I couldn't believe yesterday during a CNBC interview when, after bringing up the fact that Dick McCabe of Merrill Lynch has been wrong over most of the last 3000 pts....the interviewer apologized and called McCabe a good sport for allowing her to bring up the fact (that he has been wrong!).....Apologizing for bringing up his own record! She (Sue Herrera) shouldn't have given the pseudo-apology..these guys should have their feet held to the fire when they make bad calls..that's why they make the big bucks..if they don't like it, I'm sure there are plenty of folks who would gladly take their positions, their x thousands, and even millions salary/bonus/options each year, and appear on TV every now and then and pontificate......and, gladly, come back and explain when they are wrong... Yep, it is, like many things in life, a game....with its own set of rules..understand them, and you've got a chance to win... BTW- I think Sue Herrera overall does a great job...very professional, knowledgable, and a good sense of humor..
